For example,

If there're two deps defined in prebundle.config.mjs: package a and package b.

~~If resolving "b" in package a results in the same position of package b, we could add { b: '../b/index.js' } into a's externals.~~

~~If resolving "a" in package b results in the same position of package a, we could add { a: '../a/index.js' } into b's externals.~~

Todo

We cannot do this at this time because:

Package a’s dependency c might require a different version of package b than what a does.

Therefore, we need to manage externals using "resource path" instead of "request", but unfortunately, ncc does not support this.

Close as it’s hard to do it correctly with ncc
